EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the whimsical world of Little Jack Horner with this delightful 1921 dressing doll postcard! This charming vintage postcard features the beloved nursery rhyme character, Little Jack Horner, depicted as a cut-out doll. Children could once use scissors to carefully cut out each piece of clothing and then fit them onto Jack's body, bringing the rhyme to life in a fun and interactive way. The intricately detailed illustration of Little Jack Horner is the work of Ada Leonora Budgell Bowley, an accomplished artist known for her illustrations in children's books and educational materials. Her playful and expressive style perfectly captures the mischievous spirit of the iconic character. Little Jack Horner, a figure from English folklore, is famously known for his line in the nursery rhyme, "Little Jack Horner, Sat in the corner, Eating a Christmas pie: He put in his hand, And pulled out a plum, And said with a grin, 'What a good boy am I!'" This postcard, with its rich history and interactive element, offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to connect with the nostalgia of simpler times and the joy of childhood imagination. A true treasure for collectors of vintage children's ephemera and nursery rhyme enthusiasts.
